At the 2010 4H Shotgun Shooting competition my cousin John Lenderman won international skeet, international trap, international overall, as well as the six event Gunsmoke Award. I am not sure if he enjoyed the contest more than the presentation of the awards by the Texas 4H Ambassadors (young ladies).

This is a great new invention called "Feeder Meeter". You attach it to your deer feeder and it is a visual aid to help determine if the buck you are looking at meets the 13" rule.

This classic Winchester piece of art was for sale by Dury's Gun Store, http://www.durysguns.com/, always a great place to find antique and rare guns and related items. How could would that be to have on the wall in my office?

These words are so true. I took this poor quality photo of a billboard I saw at Moody Gardens last weekend. Take a moment to teach someone around you to appreciate our heritage of hunting and fishing.

Sometimes the common sense way is not the right way.  In this video you will see a member of TexasHuntFish.com team attempt to set a Coyote trap without the benefit of knowledge or experience. Watch and try to learn from his mistakes.

And after that, CLICK HERE to watch TexasHuntFish staff Wildlife Biologist, John Schwartzlose, demonstrate the proper way to prepare and set a coyote trap.

We see Mr. & Mrs. Wood at every wildlife related banquet in Texas. Over the years, it has been a pleasure to listen to him passionately describe his knives and meet people who collect his works of art.

His contact information is listed in our Yellow Pages. Or, CLICK HERE.

This young man was on his first hog hunt with me. It was neat to see how excited he got. He made a hit and we had plenty of blood to trail, but lost it in the thick brush. Yes, I wasn't trying to be artistic and focus on the plant!
